The API calls can be accessed via the `$client` object

```

Documentation
-------------

[](#documentation)

### Basic information

[](#basic-information)

This client follow the same tree as the [Imgur API](https://apidocs.imgur.com).

Here is the list of available *endpoints*: `account`, `album`, `comment`, `custom gallery`, `gallery`, `image`, `conversation`, `notification`, `memegen` & `topic`.

You can access each endpoint using the `api()` method:

```
$client->api('album');
$client->api('comment');
$client->api('customGallery');
// etc ...
```

All available methods for each endpoints are in the folder [Api](lib/Imgur/Api). They mostly follow the description name in the Imgur doc. Here are few examples:

```
// for "Account Base" in account
$client->api('account')->base();
// for "Account Gallery Profile" in account
$client->api('account')->accountGalleryProfile();

// for "Filtered Out Gallery" in Custom Gallery
$client->api('customGallery')->filtered();

// for "Random Gallery Images" in gallery
$client->api('gallery')->randomGalleryImages();

// etc ...
```

### Uploading an image

[](#uploading-an-image)

If you want to **upload an image** you can use one of these solutions:

```
$pathToFile = '../path/to/file.jpg';
$imageData = [
    'image' => $pathToFile,
    'type'  => 'file',
];

$client->api('image')->upload($imageData);
```

or

```
$urlToFile = 'http://0.0.0.0/path/to/file.jpg';
$imageData = [
    'image' => $urlToFile,
    'type'  => 'url',
];

$client->api('image')->upload($imageData);
```

or

```
$pathToFile = '../path/to/file.jpg';
$imageData = [
    'image' => base64_encode(file_get_contents($pathToFile)),
    'type'  => 'base64',
];

$client->api('image')->upload($imageData);
```

### Pagination

[](#pagination)

For any API call that supports pagination and is not explicitly available via the method parameters, it can be achieved by using the `BasicPager` object and passing it as the second parameter in the `api()` call.

```
$pager = new \Imgur\Pager\BasicPager(1, 10);
$images = $client->api('account', $pager)->images();
```

Here is a real life example if you want to retrieve all your available images of an account:

```
$page = 1;
$pager = new \Imgur\Pager\BasicPager();
$res = $client->api('account', $pager)->images();

while (!empty($res)) {
    // var_dump(count($res));

    $pager->setPage($page++);

    $res = $client->api('account', $pager)->images();
}
```

This pager is really basic:

- You won't have information about how many pages are available
- If you request a non-existant page, you'll get an empty array

NOTE: `/gallery` endpoints do not support the `perPage` query string, and `/album/{id}/images` is not paged.

Please, read the [Imgur doc about it](https://api.imgur.com/#paging_results).

### Image id or Album id ?

[](#image-id-or-album-id-)

When you got an Imgur link it's almost impossible to be 100% sure if it's an image or an album. That's why we have an endpoint which might fix that by first checking an id as an image and if it's fail, test it as an album:

```
$data = $client->api('albumOrImage')->find($id);
```
